Description
Summary:The article examines the possibilities of business development Żegluga Bydgoska Company in the context of the existing network of inland waterways in Poland and in the area of the current activities of the company. The article also analyses plans to expand the network of waterways within the framework of the European Union, as well as the conclusions of the report of the Supreme Chamber of Control on the assessment of the status of inland waterways in Poland in 2013. The author believes that without the expansion of the network of inland waterways in Poland the possibility of the company will continue to be limited, however, it should be considered to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the business under the OT Logistics (transportation to and within Western Europe), as well as services in support of Bydgoszcz agglomeration. The development of the company would be a positive impulse of the kujawsko-pomorskie Voivodeship/Province, in particular for the creation of new jobs, this applies particularly to activation of the Lower Valley of the Vistula River and construction of the multimodal Terminal in Solec Kujawski.
